Bents Basin is a State Conservation Area (SCA) near Wallacia, New South Wales, Australia within the Sydney basin geographical region.
The site was originally a small natural basin formed in an erosion basin banked by sandstone outcrops, considerably enlarged with a large earth fill dam constructed by the Army's 17th Construction Squadron in 1987-88.
Bents Basin SCA is a popular swimming location with a camping area and an education centre utilised by local school groups. Two roads access the park, but only the eastern approach permits access to the camping grounds and education centre. A fee is charged for vehicle access per day. Bents Basin SCA is administered by the National Parks and Wildlife Service.
